Broken club, dubbed out sounds, experimental electronics and atonal drifts: Gio’s monthly broadcasts are high contrast assemblages that move at a slow pace.

Hobbs Angel Of Death

Hobbs Angel Of Death

Hobbs Angel Of Death has been played on NTS in shows including A Fist in the Face of God presents: Midnite Madness, featured first on 6 October 2013. Songs played include Lucifers Domain, Jack The Ripper and Bubonic Plague.

The band began in 1985 as a solo project for ex-Tyrus guitarist Peter Hobbs, with the help of ex-Nothing Sacred members Mark Woolley (guitar), Sham (drums) and Karl Lean (bass), who recorded a number of demos which attracted interest from overseas labels. Hobbs' debut album, Hobbs Angel of Death, was released in 1988 through German record label Steamhammer Records, and achieved a great deal of success in Europe. A second album, Inheritance, was released in 1995, but failed to repeat the success of its predecessor and was an Australia-only release. Hobbs' Angel of Death broke up soon after the release of the album.

In 2002, Peter Hobbs put the band back together and released a compilation album of his two early demos, and the band played a European tour. This tour included an appearance at Wacken Festival and shows with German thrash legends Destruction and black metal legends Mayhem.

Although playing traditional style thrash metal, Hobbs has often described his band's sound as "virgin metal", stating that his sound is a pure style of music. The band is still currently active, and have signed a record deal with Australian label Modern Invasion Records.
